What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values hard work and offers growth opportunities.

I am an experienced agricultural professional with a strong background in both crop management and sales. Currently, I work at AAA Growers, where I am responsible for the meticulous care of rose crops, including harvesting, sorting, and disease reporting. My role requires a keen eye for detail and a commitment to maintaining high standards of quality in our products.

Previously, I served as a Branch Sales Representative at Fine Touch Africa Ltd, where I honed my skills in customer service and sales strategies. I successfully expanded our customer base through effective networking and relationship building, while also enhancing client satisfaction by addressing concerns promptly. My ability to design tailored irrigation system quotes has empowered clients to make informed decisions, significantly boosting our sales figures.
